When we’d advise against a repair
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- Widespread crazing
- A basin cracked through and leaking
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
Materials we repair
- Antique & period basins
- Enamelled basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Vanity unit basins

What your basin is made of matters
Period and antique
Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features.
Vitreous china
Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.

What else we do in Jury's Gap
DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

The process
You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and start once you are happy with the plan. Most jobs take a few hours, and you can get on with other things while we’re there. In a village or hamlet like Jury's Gap, access can be the only tricky part. Once we’re there, the sink repair works exactly as anywhere else.
- First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
- The chip or crack is filled and shaped to match the basin.
- We colour-match the finish to the glaze.
- We polish the repair to blend it in.
- The basin can usually be used later that day or the next day.
Before we arrive
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

How we price sink repair
Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. What matters most is:
- The material and finish
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Whether we combine several jobs
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Jury's Gap. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Getting a price from pictures
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Details of any past repairs
- Something in shot to show the size
- One picture of the whole basin
To get a price, send a couple of pictures using our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
Repair or replace in Jury's Gap?
Finding the same basin again is not always possible, particularly if it matches the toilet and bath. Repairing it keeps the suite together. In an older home in a village like Jury's Gap, replacing a basin can be harder than it sounds: original pieces may not match modern sizes, and access can be awkward. Repairing avoids those problems.
Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.

Aftercare tips
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Repair chips before they stain
- Use gentle cleaners
Wipe the basin over after use, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.
Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.
